AJ is on a short holiday (hope you're enjoying!!!) so I'm standing in.

It seems fitting to ask, what was your favorite vacation?

oh, so many great vacations, I can't just pick one!

But I guess the most 'meaningful' vacation at least was a trip to Disney World and the Disney Institute for a class.. a christmas present from my parents. They KNEW I've always wanted to check out the institute and see the scenes of the artists.

I have not had many vacations in life due to always keeping and breeding exotic birds, small mammals, reptiles, and amphibians. Just imagine how hard it was for me to find a pet sitter .

Now that I have far less or none of the animals on that list, I do actually get to go on a vacation .

I would say my favorite vacation was to Costa Rica, for a scientific fauna and flora study. I got to go with one of my friends who is a scientist.

It's a toss up between my trip to Bali or my honeymoon. The honeymoon wasn't near as exotic (Williamsburg VA then down to Charlotte for a nascar race) but is was with my new hubby!

I would say my favorite would be the last one - the trip to Japan in 2010. Loved the food, the people, the cute gadgets, the fantastic cosmetic products, the sights, etc.

It's a toss up between a wedding in Paris, and exploring the jungles of Panama. I like far away places!

By far, my favorite vacation was the one we took to England many years ago.

Oh, wow. Since I just returned a few weeks ago, I'll have to say Isla Mujeres. *sigh* So lovely, so relaxing, such wonderful people.

Oh, wait..... I loved my trips to Scotland too, and exploring the Highlands, and the western isles.

Oh, wait.... I loved exploring England too, especially the West Country.

Oh, dang. Can I have 3 favorites?

Actually today is Monday Oct. 10 I guess my favorite was going to Italy and Spain. Visiting St. Louis MO was also a fantastic 3 day vacation, I will remember that the most.

CRUISES, CRUISES AND MORE CRUISES!

Aside from a cruise, I'd love to someday visit Japan, Switzerland, Italy.

Guess I'd better buy a lotto ticket!

First of all, CONGRATULATIONS!

I get confused with the non-US way of writing the date, and Kailie asked yesterday's question: 9/10/11 (which we write like 10/9/11). So at least I didn't say it was September! (I asked a Mod to fix it. THANK YOU!)

My favorite vacation was when Gary and I first hit the road in the RV for an extended vacation/honeymoon kind of thing. We drove from NY to Seattle, then up to White Horse (Yukon), fishing and gold panning along the way. Then down to CA (wine country stop!), across the southern US (LOVED cajun country!!!!), and then down to Disney World in Florida.

Probably the cruise I went on just before my senior year of high school. I had several friends along and it was a really special treat for my graduation. My Mom and I have a really sweet picture together from the formal night.

A quick trip was when DH took me to Franklin, North Carolina to a ruby mine where you got to pan for your own gems. We had a lot of fun! It was something I've always wanted to do! Plus this book series I grew up reading took place in Franklin and some of the surrounding area; so that made it cool to see!

The most interesting one was swimming with the manatees in Homosassa Springs, FL in 7th grade ish. Natural spring + January = COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I nearly froze to death even with the wetsuit. But it was very fun. The manatees are rough to the touch, but friendly. They don't even care that you're there, they just keep doing their thing, eating river grass while you snorkel all around and touch them.

But by far, my favorite vacation is Disneyworld. Gotta love it.

My trip across country last year from Charleston, SC to Cabrillo Beach, CA and back again, taking 2 different routes. Covered 21 states in 14 days.

SO much new scenery, as I'd never been further west than Indiana. Cannot wait to take another one, this time going to touch the Pacific ocean in Washington state.

Our twentieth fifth anniversary trip to Cancun, Mexico. Riviera Maya. It was so beautiful. White sandy beaches. And a swim up bar in the middle of the extravagant pools. Most relaxing vacation of my life.

My favorite would be the safari to Kenya Africa. Followed by Ireland. I would like to live in Ireland if it did not rain so much, although it does seem to rain almost everyday here in New Jersey.
